Chapter Fifty-Three: Trying to Laugh
Lin Shaoxuan took a few stewards to check on the Zhuangzi for a day, bought what should be bought, added what should be added, and was ready to start work.
"Okay, tomorrow will be repaired for a day, and the day after tomorrow will officially start."
arranged Ge Dazhu to be responsible for the purchase of Zhuangzi, and Lin Shaoxuan threw five hundred taels of silver tickets to Fu Bo and went back to the city by himself.
I really don't want to go back to that home, just a few people, and it is also full of deceit, where Lin Shaoxuan can't feel the warmth and tranquility of home. He just wants to leave early, start his own business, and start a free life, preferably, with Jinyu.
The door of Jiangfu was finally open to Lin Shaoxuan, and after he reported his name, the door welcomed him into the door very warmly, and ordered someone to go in to report, and even Lin Shaoxuan did not dare to accept the reward given.
"Second son Lin, my eldest lady specially ordered, if you come to find the third son, you must not stop it, who dares to snub you will be severely punished, how dare the villain ask for your reward."
"Just take it for you, don't worry, the eldest lady won't blame you."
Haha, I can finally enter the house in the open!
When Lin Shaoxuan didn't sit for a while, Qin'er greeted him and took him to Jinyu's courtyard. The jade boy was writing something in the study, and when he saw him coming, he didn't stop writing, just nodded slightly, and said, "Brother Lin is here, please wait for a while." ”
Lin Shaoxuan said that it was okay, so he sat on the small couch in front of the window without seeing it, and took Jinyu's codex on the side of the case and looked at it. It's still comfortable here, accompanied by beauty, and I don't need more words to feel calm and peaceful.
"Brother Lin is here today, but the workshop is about to open?"
"Exactly. I'm going to stay in Zhuangzi for a few days, and I'm going to invite you to come with me. ”
"Okay, please ask Brother Lin to sit here less, and wait for me to go to my mother."
Jiang Jinyu finished writing the notes, ordered Qin'er to serve her, and went to the main courtyard to ask Mrs. Jiang.
"Qin'er, don't be busy, come, sit down, I'll ask you a few words."
Lin Shaoxuan called Qin'er, who was busy serving tea and water to prepare fruits, and asked him about Jinyu's current situation.
"If you go back to Lin Gongzi, my son-in-law has been very good these days, he plays the piano and blows the flute every day, and he also goes to the library for a walk in his spare time. I heard that Madame and Mademoiselle liked the mirror case you sent last time, and want to use it as the first treasure in the dowry. ”
Oh, it's good to like it, since you like the gift I gave, I won't be allowed to ask Jinyu to go out to play today.
Lin Shaoxuan sat and chatted with Qin'er, listening to him talk about what Jinyu does on weekdays, what snacks he likes to eat, and what tea he drinks.
"May I ask if this is Lin Gongzi? My wife asks you to see you. ”
Madame wants to see me? Lin Shaoxuan knew his identity, and he was not qualified to meet the first lady of the city, but who told him that he had just given a heavy gift, and it was understandable that he was summoned.
"Thank you, sister, I'll go." Lin Shaoxuan stood up, straightened his clothes, and handed another piece of silver to the girl, and looked at others with a shy face.
"I haven't asked my sister for her name yet."
That girl is also a faceless person in this house, and when she first came, she was still a little handy, and she took the silver, and when she saw that he was handsome and spoke sweetly, she couldn't help but smile.
"Slave Guixiang, but she can't afford to be the sister of the son. Childe come with me, Madame is in a good mood today, Childe doesn't have to worry. ”
Sure enough, it was the person who served by the prefect's wife, and I just asked for my name, and people knew what I wanted to say. Haha, the little girl has a future.
Around the rockery, through the corridor, I don't know how far he went, Caixiang brought him to a Chinese hall.
"Lin Gongzi, please wait, the slave maid will go in and report."
"Sister go by herself, I'll wait here." Lin Shaoxuan is not in a hurry, not long after Jinyu went, Mrs. ordered someone to invite, just now the little girl also said, Mrs. is in a good mood today, wait a few more good words, it's a big deal to give her some good things, and she will be asked to promise to let Jinyu go out to play for a few days.
Not long after Lin Shaoxuan stood still, Guixiang came out of the curtain and ushered him into the guest hall.
"Madam, Lin Gongzi is here."
This guest room is spacious and bright, and the interior is very ornately furnished, with a noble lady sitting on the top and Jin Yu respectfully accompanying the lower one.
This noble lady must be Jinyu's mother-in-law, the prefect's wife.
"Xiaomin Lin Shaoxuan has seen Madame." Lin Shaoxuan slammed to the ground, didn't even raise his head, and made a very respectful appearance.
"Lin Gongzi is exempt, please take a seat." A gentle and elegant female voice sounded, just listening to the voice, this is definitely a great beauty who is knowledgeable, has an identity and is cultivated.
"Mrs. Xie." Lin Shaoxuan stood up at this time, and sat opposite Jinyu under the guidance of Guixiang, and a little girl sent tea.
"Lin Gongzi don't see outside, since you are good friends with my three sons, you should come and walk around often. I only asked you to meet you today, but it seems that we have neglected it. ”
"Madame, you're so polite." Lin Shaoxuan had a smile on his face, but there was a sentence in his heart that MMP didn't know whether to say it or not, didn't Lao Tzu come and walk around and was kicked out by you, and now he said it so nicely.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to speak, Lin Shaoxuan looked at the prefect's wife. Sure enough, she is a serious housewife, and this all-round style does not depend on clothing but on temperament. Originally, I thought that my wife was very magnificent, but if I stood in front of her, I would be compared to a country woman.
The prefect's wife invited him to come, firstly because he had given such a valuable gift to his daughter, and secondly, because she wanted to see what kind of person the third son's friend was. At this time, I looked carefully and saw that although he was handsome, he was full of smilingness, and San'er was in the company of such a person all day long, and he couldn't make a big deal if he thought about it.
Yes, you deserve a like that. Mrs. Jiang relaxed her vigilance, chatted and laughed with the two of them casually, and asked him to come and move around often, so she mercifully allowed Jinyu to go out with him for a walk.
Lin Shaoxuan was overjoyed, he heard that the eldest lady was going to get married soon, and he promised to send someone to send a few more bottles of rose fairy dew tomorrow for the eldest lady to use, so he withdrew from the guest hall with Jinyu.
"Haha, let's go, come with me to stay in Zhuangzi for a few days."
Lin Shaoxuan got the permission of the prefect's wife, and he could come to Jinyu at will in the future, but he felt that he was finally satisfied today, took his hand and laughed all the way.
Jiang Jinyu packed a few clothes, and didn't bring anything else, even Qin'er was left at home by him, which made Qin'er pouting and the boss unhappy, until Lin Shaoxuan secretly stuffed him with a silver ingot to buy fruits to eat.
"Qin'er, don't play all day at home, pay attention to the movement in the house, if there is anything to do immediately go to Zhuangzi to find us, do you know?"
Jin Yu never cared about this, Lin Shaoxuan had to worry more about him.
"I see. Lin Gongzi, please take care of my son-in-law. ”
I don't see that you're a loyal servant. Lin Shaoxuan rubbed Qin'er's little head and gave him a lot of assurances, and then went out with Jinyu's little baggage.
The last time I went, because I wanted to take Fu Bo, both of them were in the car, but this time there was no one else, Lin Jiang and the two of them each rode a horse, and ran happily on the official road when they went out of the city.
"Let's come to the horse race to see who gets to Zhuangzi first, and the loser will be invited to the host tonight!"
That person has a bleak and detached face all day long, and it is rare to see him happy, but when he came out to relax today, Lin Shaoxuan deliberately made him happy.
"Okay!"
Although Jiang Jinyu has a cold temperament, after all, he is only in his teens, and he has not lost his youthful nature. As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his horsewhip and rushed along the main road.
"Wait for me!"
Lin Shaoxuan urged the horses to catch up, and the two horses raised smoke and dust all the way, and the five-mile road arrived in an instant. Before he finished running, Zhuangmen was already in front of him, Jin Yu took the lead, and just after pulling the reins, Lin Shaoxuan also caught up.
"You've lost!" Jiang Jinyu galloped, dissipating the depression in her heart, and at this time, seeing Lin Shaoxuan's stupid face following behind her, she couldn't help laughing.
That smile was as dazzling as the sun, as brilliant as a summer flower, and it was dazzling. Lin Shaoxuan deliberately lagged behind half a step just now, his original intention was to make a smile at Pomeranian, but he didn't expect him to smile so well, so that people hate to keep that smile even if they can't do everything in the world.
"I'm not convinced, I'm not convinced! Come back tomorrow! ”
Lin Shaoxuan decisively played a scoundrel, and sure enough, he saw that person raised a big smile again.
"Okay, I'll compare tomorrow, but tonight's host is not allowed to rely on!"
The two led their horses across the wooden bridge and into the Grange. Today's Zhuangzi is different from the past, in addition to the farmers working in the fields, there are many vehicles entering and leaving. The ox carts and wagons were loaded with timber or grain, and some were covered with jars of wine.
Fu Bo was leading people to meet the goods at Zhuangkou to arrange loading and unloading, and when he saw him coming, he hurriedly put down the work in his hand and greeted him.
"Second son, you're here." Looking up at the two men, one of them was still smiling, and the other was dusty and embarrassed.
"Childe, do you want to take a shower and change your clothes first?"
Shower and change clothes? Well, the mandarin duck playing in the water is very much to my liking!
"Oops, it's really embarrassing today, watch me take revenge tomorrow! Fu Bo, ask someone to carry two bath buckets and put them in my room, and Jinyu and I will have to take a bath. ”
Jiang Jinyu was disgusted with sweating and dust on her body, and she didn't think much about bathing when she heard about it, but she didn't know that this big pervert really wanted to take advantage of the bath and feast her eyes, so she didn't object.
"Let someone go and pick the flower dew that was steamed yesterday and pick some rose petals, and Jinyu and I will also try this rose bath today."
You big man, what kind of rose bath do you have in a bath? Fu Bo felt strange in his heart, but looking at Jiang Jinyu's appearance of fine skin and tender meat, and then thinking about the rumors outside, he had to sigh secretly and reluctantly let people prepare.
Nowadays, Zhuangzi is no longer what it used to be, and there are more people serving.
When Fu Bo went out for a short time, two large bath tubs were carried into the room, filled with hot water, each with half a bucket of ten taels of silver and a bottle of flower dew, and sprinkled with a layer of gorgeous rose petals, which was really the treatment of a noble concubine. It's just that at this time, it was two men who bathed.
